Producer of Kochadaiyaan dismisses rumors of film being dropped

Replying to rumours doing rounds in certain sections of the press that superstar Rajinikanth’s upcoming 3-D animation venture Kochadaiyaan has been dropped, the producer of the film has dismissed all those rumours as ‘baseless’.

For the past few days, some sections of the print media and a news which claimed that Kochadaiyaan might not release at all. These were disturbing to Rajini’s millions of fans who had been waiting ever-so-patiently to watch their Thalaivar in action on screen, albeit in an animation film, after a long time.

Neither Rajini nor Soundarya appeared to be coming with a proper explanation to quell the rumours in this regard. When contacted, Dr. Murali Manohar, one of the producers of the film, was at a loss of words to explain his predicament. “These are all absolutely false rumours and I don’t know where from they emanate. We couldn’t go ahead with a couple of promotional activities due to utterly unavoidable circumstance.

“The film, though, has been progressing amazingly and whoever has watched it from among the technical crew has been floored by its grandeur. Rajini Sir has completed his portion of the dubbing and we would have to do some other work before releasing the film’s audio. We want to do it differently and hope Rajini’s fans would continue to be a little more patient to watch a magnum opus of this kind,” concluded Manohar.
